Draging geometry in sketch 1

[m1mason]

I'm using SWX 2009 sp3. it started suddenly and I can't find the option in the tools.

when I drag my sketch element itself (ex. line) it tries to produce a copy and gives me an error message after. but if I drag the point it works fine. how do you get back the classical behavior.

thanks,

I can't reproduce that effect.

What is the error message?

Do you have another machine to install the Copy Settings from?

This may not be the issue but has caught me out before so I will suggest it.

Check you don't have a 'sticky' SHIFT key. Easy to check in notepad etc.

Try "Tools/sketch tools/modify" to move the entire sketch.

Are you getting this error. If yes them try switching off the No Solve Move option. Its under Tools > Sketch Settings > No Solve Move.

Thanks Gupta65. it was the "Tools > Sketch Settings > No Solve Move"
